Description
This is an enhanced pending order cBot. Instead of defining a price to enter the market, you define a price range where a trade may open. Order is opened when the current ask price is in the range defined and volatility and trend strength are picking up.
You may set “Open trade on Start” to yes and the order will open immediately after you start the cBot.
How it works
The “Target TP” price used as take profit and the “Pivot SL” price used as the stop loss.
Trade will open on the criteria bellow:
- If ask price is smaller than target price, buy order is opened. If ask price is bigger than target price, sell order is opened.
- Ask price must be between target and pivot price.
- “Distance from Target/Pivot” in pips defines the minimum distance between ask price/pivot price and ask price/target price.
- ADX value must be greater than 20.
- If MACD signal line cross above MACD line open sell order. If MACD signal line cross bellow MACD line, open buy order.
- Volume is calculated depending on the Pivot/SL price you’ve defined and the amount in your account’s currency you want to ris

You may post jobs in the Freelance section.
Thanks.
You can make pending grid piramyt.
5-10 pending order 10-15 pip after cross price ?
[Parameter("Max Positions", DefaultValue = 5, MinValue = 1, Step = 15)]
public int MaxPos { get; set; }
ADX shows trend strength, no matter of the direction.
You want ADX to be greater than 20, so you know there is a trend .
Your welcome! I am on FXpro.
Hello
Thank you for sharing your work.
I think line 76 for ADX Sell: if (i_adx.ADX.LastValue> 20) is: (i_adx.ADX.LastValue <20)
Good trade !!
cordially
Hi Patrick, thank you, Which Broker do you use? Thanks
I am looking for a robot for DPO.
